About Madeira Polyneon #40 Polyester Embroidery Thread

Madeira Polyneon is a 100% polyester embroidery thread engineered for commercial production. The #40 weight is the industry standard for logos, lettering and fill stitches, and its trilobal filament gives a sheen close to rayon while staying colorfast through chlorine bleach, industrial laundering and sunlight. That makes Polyneon the go-to thread for uniforms, hospitality linens, sportswear, caps and corporate apparel. Every Buckets of Ink listing shows the exact Madeira color number (918-xxxx for 5,500-yard cones, 919-xxxx for 1,100-yard spools) so your digitizer, machine operator and purchasing all reference the same SKU. Madeira publishes conversion charts to Isacord, Robison-Anton and Sulky, and our team will match any Pantone to the nearest Polyneon shade.

Madeira Thread FAQ

What is Madeira Polyneon #40 thread?

Polyneon #40 is Madeira's 100% polyester embroidery thread. It has a high-sheen finish close to rayon, but it is colorfast, chlorine-bleach resistant and strong enough to run at high speeds on commercial multi-head machines, which makes it the standard choice for uniforms, workwear, hats and anything that gets washed hard.

What's the difference between the 5,500-yard cone and the 1,100-yard spool?

Same thread, different put-up. The 5,500 yd (5,000 m) cone is the production size for commercial shops and costs less per yard. The 1,100 yd (1,000 m) spool is a smaller size for home or single-head machines and sampling new colors.

How do I find a specific Madeira color number?

Type the four-digit Madeira color number (for example 1592) or the full SKU (918-1592) into the search box at the top of this page. You can also search by color name, such as “blue” or “green”, use the color-family filter bar, or browse the carousels below.

Is Polyneon compatible with my embroidery machine?

Yes. Polyneon #40 runs on all commercial and home embroidery machines, including Tajima, Barudan, Brother, SWF, Ricoma, Melco, Happy and ZSK. Use a 75/11 embroidery needle and standard 40-weight digitizing settings.

Do you stock Madeira thread in Arizona?

Yes. Buckets of Ink is an authorized Madeira USA dealer and keeps Polyneon cones in stock at our Phoenix-area warehouse, with same-day delivery across the Valley and nationwide shipping on every order.

Can you match a Pantone or thread color from another brand?

Yes. Send us the Pantone number or the thread brand and color number and we'll give you the closest Madeira Polyneon match. Madeira also publishes conversion charts for Isacord, Robison-Anton and Sulky.
